STUDY QUESTION Can bovine oocyte antioxidant defence and oocyte quality be improved
by extending the duration of pre-in vitro maturation (IVM) with cyclic adenosine mono …

The present study was conducted to evaluate the function of cumulus cells during bovine
IVF. Oocytes within cumulus–oocyte complexes (COCs) or denuded oocytes (DOs) were …

Oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) is an important assisted reproductive technology and
research tool. The adoption of IVM into routine clinical practice has been hindered by its …

In the efforts aimed at improving the quality of in-vitro-matured human oocytes, the dynamic
balance and roles of pro-/antioxidants merit further consideration. In-vitromaturation (IVM) is …

Background Therapeutic potential of in vitro maturation (IVM) in infertility is growing with
great promise. Although significant progress is obtained in recent years, existing IVM …

In brief Post-ovulatory ageing of oocytes leads to poor oocyte and embryo quality as well as
abnormalities in offspring. This review provides an update on the contributions of oxidative …

The present study was conducted to examine the protective effect of cumulus cells on oocyte
damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS), generated by the hypoxanthine …

We investigated the ability of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide
(H2O2), hydroxyl radical (· OH), and hypochlorous acid (HOCl), to overcome the defensive …

Significance: Four decades have passed since the first successful human embryo conceived
from a fertilization in vitro. Despite all advances, success rates in assisted reproduction …

Simple Summary In vitro embryo production (IVEP) is a technology that is widely used in the
field of reproductive biology. The first and most important step of IVEP is termed in vitro …
